HB
Yes. Short answer.
Hb means hemoglobin in the medical context.High BloodpressureMost often Hb stand for hemoglobin, which is a measure of the iron containing part of the red blood cell that carries oxygen.In cardiology it can also stand for heart block.
Brunch is made by the Irish company HB. HB share some ice creams with Walls ice cream (English) but Brunch is exclusive to HB, which means its only available in Ireland. Sorry :) :P
It is a pencil gradation system. HB means hard black B means black and 2H means harder.H (2H, 4H, etc) are the harder leads, and therefore draw a lighter line; and B (2B, 4B, etc) are the softer leads, and therefore draw a darker line. HB is the very middle. The larger the number, the farther away from HB it is. So for instance, 6B will be darker than 2B, and 4H would be lighter than 2H.Read more: What_do_HB_B_2H_signs_in_pencils_mean

An HB pencil is just a No. 2 Pencil HB stands for Hard Black
Firstly, the test is Glycosylated Haemoglobin (Hb A1c). In Diabetes, the Haemoglobin (Hb) in the blood may get glycated, hence showing the extent of diabetic control in the patient, i.e., the lower the glycated Hb, the better the control. Further, the Hb which is glycated remains in the blood for as long as the life of the hb, hence creating almost like a 3 Month Record of the Diabetic Control in the patient, as against the regular Blood Sugar (Glucose) test which is a measurement of the glucose in the blood for that given time. Hence, the test should be done by diabetics every 3-4 months to track the extent of diabetic control. Measurment: The gold standard method to measure Hb A1c is by High Pressure Liquid Chromatography (HPLC). The machine (almost like a haemotology cell counter) measures the glycated haemglobin, which gives a percentage of the total haemoglobin which is glycated. Normal Values (Reference Range): Less than 6%: Non-Diabetic Level, 6-7% : Good Control, > 8%:Action Suggested
